Remarks

Previously known only from Typhloiulus Latzel, 1884 and Trogloiulus Manfredi, 1931 from Italy ( Santamaría et al. 2014). The new records extend both the host range and the geographical distribution of this species. Among the new hosts, Cylindroiulus truncorum , Amblyiulus kovali and Serboiulus kresnik belong to the family Julidae , like previously known hosts, whereas Proteroiulus hispanus belongs to the related family Blaniulidae . Cylindroiulus truncorum is a widespread, largely synanthropic species with a preference for high humidity; Amblyiulus kovali and Serboiulus kresnik are cavernicolous ( Haacker 1968; Kime & Enghoff 2017). Infected specimens of Proteroiulus hispanus were collected at high altitude in Sierra Nevada, mainly in the Mesovoid Shallow Stratum, MSS ( Gilgado et al. 2015).
